Mediocre journalism

>Zizek
>not a pseud
He deserves all the mistreatment he can get. His mememagic is growing too much and need to be stopped.
I don't even want to know what he would do with his Hegelian/Lacanian spells if he gets enough mememagic.

they have an aversion to truth

They didn't actually invite him to the show to hear him talk. They just want to try to make him, and by proxy other "Trump apologists," look stupid so people at home feel better watching it.

*Sniifs* This half-joking leftist post-factualism "hehe this is what other people actuallly belive how stupid" and so on

The BBC is disrespectful towards anyone who doesn't support their narrative.

- t. English Person

because even the BBC realize he's a retard only 16 year old left wing virgins from /leftypol/ and /r/socialism take seriously

>if you are funny and don't obey my ideology you are Trump
really makes you fink

The whole point of a host is to play devil's advocate, retards.

Stop projecting your conspiracies.

>shaming guests for not maintaining the establishment narrative
>being the devil's advocate

a host should host and leave advocating to the devil or whatever

>brexit was an attack on lgbt
kek

In this case the devil is his employer

their audience is a nation of shopkeepers who purchase television licenses and enjoy interracial pornography


Of course they will hate anyone who understands the work of German philosophers and french psychoanalysts

First time seeing this man and I like his reasoning. Is he a meme or real?

>First time seeing this man
>On Veeky Forums
Is this a meme or real?

>German philosophers and french psychoanalysts
Frenchie detected.

That dumb look on his face while he's listening to Zizek.

I think Zizek would be better off with a translator. I saw him on Croatian television, and he was much clearer and seemed so comfortable. No sniffing, no ticks, less tangential

Probably another /pol/friend who listens to Zizek and realizes what the real redpill is
(traditional marxism)

I meant I've seen people posting him. But never really looked at him. Like the John green meme posts.

Every body on /pol/ already knows about Zizek senpai.

>tfw just an Australian English speaker.
I wish I had an accent like Slavoj.

Challenging your guest for a provocative response is one thing, but he's obviously doing more than that.

>tfw from Texas
>tfw from central Texas so I have a TV accent
How the fuck are foreigners supposed to know where I'm from when I don't talk like a cowboy reeeee

>central Texas
>TV accent

you've just be cultured that way, there is a very established central Texas accent influenced by German and central European immigrants

>immigration is keeping us from sounding retarded

the horror

>you Sound Retarded™ if it takes more runtime or data for Google Translate Audio Edition™ to process your phonecalls

probably the best American rhetorician was Rick Roderick who has an extremely classic West Texas accent

>fat crosseyed retard in a t-shirt came to your show and keeps spitting in your face while speaking the most broken english ever
I'd be angry too

It's interesting how the host only plays devil's advocate when somebody questions the liberal establishment narrative

You watch that program often?

Are any of zizeks books worth a read, and do they require you to have read something else first?

start with the greeks

Ok, but are any of zizeks books worth a read?

"Zizek's Jokes"

...

Zizek isn't really worth your time if you want new original thought, but his commentary on Lacan from a Marxist perspective is probably the best.

British """""""""""""people""""""""""""""""

This , Demanding the Impossible and Comradely Greetings were all pretty interesting. Working my way up to the heavier stuff like Sulbime Object of Ideology and The Fragile Absolute

because he """"""endorsed"""""" trump, probably, and it makes sense for any establishment liberal to take that position, like chomsky

it has been the trendy thing to call him a white supremacist for a while now

only just recently - like after Trump actually became the prez - I've seen some leftists actually consider that Zizek might've actually been right about the Trump victory, with all the huge protests, more radical demands, etc

Chomsky is hardly an establishment liberal...

>Chomsky is hardly an establishment liberal
>The multimillionaire who has endorsed and campaigned for multiple democrat candidates isn't a establishment liberal

>not enjoying interracial pornography
come on, Pierre

He considers Obama and Clinton to be terrorists. His "endorsements" of Democratic candidates have always been clearly based on lesser-of-two-evils arguments.

>Of course they will hate anyone who understands the work of German philosophers and french psychoanalysts

This.

After centuries of courting lizardmen bankers and funding the destruction of the continent out of terror, the eternal Anglo has finally cucked itself into oblivion.
